Hi everyone, I've tried some things suggested by the France people but it doesn't works. Here is what I've tried. I've changed the field DATEIMPR by PRINTDATE and I've verified if the fields appears in shading. It doesn't. I press the combination Alt+F9 and the fields such as PRINTDATE, PAGE and SECTIONPAGES don't appear as a coded fields. The result is after the merge in a new document, the above fields don't updated. Have you other suggestions ? Thank you >-----Original Message----- >That does not happen for me. If you want to send the document to me I will [quoted text clipped - 10 lines] > >.

Hi, The delimiters are assigned by using the mail merge wizard called « Insert a keyword » (Insérer un Mot-Clé) on the mail merge toolbar. >-----Original Message----- >Did you use Ctrl+F9 to insert the field delimiters { } You cannot insert [quoted text clipped - 47 lines] > >. |
